Gripper and Kicker (aka: Hudson and Madden)

Okay, this week-- not my fault. Blogger wasn't working last night! I was secretly thankful because I was so wiped out, but it seems Monday nights aren't any easier. Life is busy, that's for sure!

Both boys are becoming so much fun! They both weigh 13 pounds...my big boys! So one day last week I set them on the couch together to run and get them jammies. Hudson fell into Madden, and this is the cute picture I got!!!

And then....

And then....

Isn't this SO funny?!?! I was laughing so hard! Good thing they don't have teeth yet!

The reason for the title...Hudson grabs hold of anything and everything he can get...and doesn't let go!! Most of the time, it's Madden's ear or the back of his head!! He's our little gripper! Don't worry, Madden fights back by kicking Hudson all of the time. We just hope his kicking abilities are used on the football field, and not the soccer field! :)

This week was also the end of an era....the co-sleeping era. After two nights of Hudson crying out, and me finding that Madden had turned in bed and was kicking him in the face...we decided it was time to separate the two. Oh, I was really sad, and still am. I think because it just means my tiny babies are growing up. I wonder if they miss sleeping next to each other, or if they are confused. Heck, they are probably happy to have their own space, who knows. But...the almost 4 month olds are now sleeping in their very own, separate cribs. Sniff Sniff. Here is a picture of their last night in one crib...

This weekend the Blue Angels were in town, so the kids and I went to watch the show. Saturday we walked (in the rain) around our old neighborhood and visited a bit-- then headed over to "the shop" to watch the planes. We did the same thing on Sunday. The planes were a-mazing. The kids did really well with the noise too. (Craig, sadly was working through it all)

Paisley is doing well...not too much is new with her. She is very much into helping me prepare meals and helping with diaper changes. Her imagination is great....as I type, she and grandpa mike (not sure which one) are going to the grocery store to buy bowls, pizzas, monkeys and blankies.

Sorry this is super short-- life calls. I promise to do my best this summer, but am starting back up at grad school in just 6 short days...this might be a loooong 8 week semester! If only Madden wouldn't get up 15 times a night (literally)...it might be better!! So, no nasty emails if I'm not on top of my blogging game, got it?! :)

Enjoy your week---
